At a Glance

  • 2-part live webinar series
  • Offers new and out-of-the-box ideas for getting representation and attracting the interest of producers
  • Reveals over 20 types of unconventional film and TV professionals that can help launch your screenwriting career

Have you written a good script, sent out hundreds of queries, networked at every opportunity, and still have yet to get your script in the hands of someone in a position to launch your career? Veteran screenwriter Michael Elliot – whose unconventional submission strategy led to his first spec sale to a major studio – offers unique strategies for breaking-in with this information-packed live webinar series.

Originally presented live in November 2010, Elliot’s Renegade Tactics live webinar series reveals an arsenal of unconventional strategies and out-of-the-box ideas for penetrating the barriers-to-entry that new and unrepresented writers face. Even seasoned industry professionals familiar with the Traditional Hollywood Playbook consider Elliot’s renegade tactics for breaking-in, a breakthrough:

“Your webinar felt like the Rosetta stone that cracked the code of my piecemeal approach. Thank you so much.”
- Laura Weinstock, Weinstock Scripts

The recordings of the Renegade Tactics live webinar series are available to view and/or download. In them, Elliot reveals his unique, specific, and crafty perspectives on:

  • How to effectively use an Agent’s assistant to get representation
  • How to use a Producer’s ambition to your advantage
  • How get a Development Exec to read your query even when their company doesn’t accept unsolicited submissions
  • How to use a Manager’s client roster to get your own spot on the client roster
  • How to use a single sentence to spark interest in your script
  • How to use Other Peoples’ relationships to sell your first spec
  • PLUS: Elliot reveals over 20 types of unconventional industry insiders (commonly overlooked by new screenwriters) that can help launch your screenwriting career

Optional Support Material
Since the contact information for the unconventional film and television professionals is either inaccessible to new or unrepresented writers outside or simply hard-to-get, Elliot has done the heavy lifting for you. Elliot’s The Unusual Suspects: Unconventional Film & Television Contacts to Launch Your Screenwriting Career is a comprehensive, downloadable directory that provides the names and contact information for the types of unconventional film and television professionals that Elliot discusses in the Renegade Tactics live webinar series.
